How do you Delete document and photos once saved to PC

I've been unable to delete many pages of documents that I've 'saved to PC,' using the MP160 software. I've searched thoroughly the on screen MP160 Manual and I can't find the way to do this.
Please Help,

I am using the Vista (Don't have any choice in the matter) OS. I finally realized I may not be able to find any solution to my inability to delete documents and pictures from the MP160 Navigator software so I tried clicking , 'Pictures,' located on the upper far right of the Start menu on my Vista start up screen. Then under, 'Folder,' on the far left of the 'pictures' screen I scrolled and found, 'pictures,' again cliked it and found 'MP Navigator,' under that category. I clicked MP Navigator and was given a long list of the photos and documents already on my MP Navigator software. When you click on of the image titles it will display the image or document. Then, while viewing the image or document, click the file menu, choose, 'delete,' and one by one you can delete the image or document if you want to. (James A. Baker-Opelika, Alabama)

The scanned items should be stored somewhere on your computer as an image file(JPG, TIF, BMP, or PDF). Typically, when you scan a document you decide where to save the document. Simply browse to where the scanned documents are, right-click on one of the files then click Delete. This should delete the scanned document.

You have to clear out all documents one by one in the print que before you can delete the one causing the trouble. On the bottom right side of your pc screen, find the picture of the printer and right click with your mouse on it. Open your print que and right click on each document and choose "delete" until therer are none left in the print que. If this does not clear that last document, then unplug your usb cord that connects the printer to your pc and wait a few moments, and then plug it back in. This should clear it out.

5. If you need to change any of the current PDF settings, click the Options button. You see the EPSON PDF Plug-in Settings window:

Select the settings that match your document and click OK. You return to the File Save Settings window.6. When you are finished selecting file settings, click OK. Epson Scan scans your page and displays this window:

7. If you are scanning only one document page, or you don’t need to edit your pages, click Save File and go to step 10.

If you are scanning multiple pages, click Add page and replace the first page on the document table with the second page and click Scan. Repeat this step for each page in your document. When you are finished, click Edit page and go to step 8.8. You see the Editing Page window displaying thumbnail images of each scanned page:

If you want to include all the document pages in your PDF file as they currently look, go to step 9.If you want to delete some of the pages, click the odd pages or even pages icons, or click the individual pages you want to delete. Then click the delete icon to delete them.If you want to rotate pages, click the pages or use the odd pages, even pages, or all pages icon to select the pages. Then click the left or right rotate icon to rotate them.Note: The delete icon is not available when all document pages are selected.9. When you have finished editing your document pages, click OK. Your document is saved in a PDF file in the location you selected and you return to the EPSON Scan window.

First, gather the paper you want to scan. If your scanner has anADF, you can load a stack of pages at a time. The first time you scan,Document Imaging detects the ADF for you.For more information about the ADF and whether your scanner has one,see the documentation that came with your scanner. You will also want to sort your paper; if you have color pages thatyou want scanned in color, sort these in a separate stack from theblack and white pages. Load your first page, or first stack of pages(with an ADF) in your scanner.Then, start Microsoft Office Document Scanning (the scanning component of the Microsoft Office Document Imaging program.)

On the Windows Start menu, point to All Programs (Programs in Windows 2000), point to Microsoft Office, point to Microsoft Office Tools, and then click Microsoft Office Document Scanning.

Tip If Microsoft Office Document Imaging is already running, you can start the scanning component by clicking Scan New Document on the File menu.
Set up your scanning optionsIn the Scan New Document dialog box, do one or more of the following:

To view your scanned file(s) in Document Imaging after they have been scanned (recommended), select the View file after scanning check box.

If your scanner is equipped with an ADF, click Scanner, and then select the Use automatic document feeder check box.

If your scanner is equipped with an ADF and you have double-sided originals, select the Original is double sidedcheck box to scan both the front and back of multiple pages. Place thepages in the feeder so that the page fronts are scanned first.The Microsoft Office Document Scanningdialog box will appear after each scan, allowing you to turn the pagesover and scan the page backs. Document Imaging automatically collatesthe pages in the correct order after scanning is complete.

If you have a true duplex ADF (one that automatically scans both sides of the page), do not select the Original is double sided check box. Instead, in the Scan New Document dialog box, click Scanner, and then select the Show scanner driver dialog before scanning check box. When your scanner driver dialog box appears during scanning, select the proper duplex settings.

If you want to scan pages manually, select the Prompt for additional pages check box. Office Document Imaging will pause after each page is scanned, allowing you to place the next page in your scanner.

By default, optical character recognition (OCR) is performed onyour document during the scanning process. Although performing OCR addstime to the scanning process, it also has the following benefits:

When you open the scanned document in Microsoft Office DocumentImaging, you can search for recognized text in the document, copyrecognized text in the document to another document or program, andsend recognized text in the document to Microsoft Word, withoutperforming OCR manually.

You can have your scanned files saved with an automatic filename based on the first words on the page (this is the default.)

To turn off OCR during the scanning process (you can perform OCRmanually in the document in Document Imaging after scanning), do thefollowing:

In the Scan New Document dialog box, select the preset you want to use, such as Black and white.

Click Preset options, and then click either Create new preset (and then type a name for the preset), or click Edit selected preset.

On the Processing tab in the Preset Options dialog box, clear the Use OCR to recognize the text of the scanned image check box.

Select location, name, or file type for the scanned filesPart of the scanning process is to save a scanned page to a file. Bydefault, when you scan multiple pages, the pages are saved in one file.If you want to save each scanned page as a separate file, select thenaming convention for the scanned files, or change the location or fileformat of the scanned files, do any of the following:

In the Scan New Document dialog box, select the preset you want to use, such as Black and white.

Click Preset options, and then click either Create new preset (and then type a name for the preset), or click Edit selected preset.

Do one or more of the following:

To save each scanned page as a separate file, select the Save each page as a separate document check box on the Page tab.

To change the location for the saved files, click the Change button on the Output tab, and select a location.

To select the way the individual files will be automatically named, click one of the File Name options on the Output tab. (If you have turned off OCR during scanning, you will be unable to use the Auto name based on first words on page option.)

To select the file format the scanned pages will be saved in, click the Advanced button on the General tab, and select the options you want.

Click OK.

Scan your pages

In the Scan New Document dialog box, make sure the preset you want to use is selected, and then click Scan. If you selected the Original is double sided check box or the Prompt for additional pages check box, the Microsoft Office Document Scanningdialog box appears periodically to let you know that the scanner hasfinished. You then have the option to continue scanning (place anotherpage in a scanner that doesn't have an ADF) or turn your page or pagesover to scan the other side. Arrange your page or pages as desired, andselect the option you want to continue scanning.

When all pages, all sides have been scanned, click Done in the Microsoft Office Document Scanning dialog box.

To scan additional pages, review the Get started section above, and then repeat the instructions in this section (Scan your pages.)

Organize pages in the saved file(s)Now that you've finished scanning, it's time to take a look at theresults. If your scanned pages are not open in Document Imaging, do thefollowing:

On the Start menu, point to All Programs (Programs in Windows 2000), point to Microsoft Office, point to Microsoft Office Tools, and then click Microsoft Office Document Imaging to start Document Imaging.

In Document Imaging, click Open on the File menu.

Locate the file you want to open (by default, the scanned page(s)is saved to the My Documents folder with an auto filename based on thefirst words on the page, such as Page1of.tif) and then click Open.

Repeat steps 2-3 until all of the files you need are open.

You now have an online version of your stack of paper. Here are a few tips to get you started organizing pages.

Copy a page to a new document In the thumbnail pane, select the page you want to copy. On the Page menu, click Copy Page. Switch to the Document Imaging document into which you want to insert the copied page. In the thumbnail pane, select the page that precedes the location where you want to paste the copied page. On the Page menu, click Paste Page.

Delete a page In the page pane or the thumbnail pane, click the page you want to delete. On the Page menu, click Delete Page.

For more information about scanning or organizing pages, see Microsoft Office Document Imaging Help.The papers that were once cluttering your desk have now beentransformed into electronic documents. Within these documents, you canarrange pages, move pages to different documents, delete pages, printpages, add annotations, copy text to other Office programs, or send apage to someone in email. And still have room on your desk for yourcoffee.
